To the Editor OF the Eagle
The EAGLE is pronounced the most
comely bird Of this latitude since 1t has
donned its metropolitan plumage, and if
its scream could be heard with a little
more regularity at this hamlet its patrons
would be still better pleased and become
more numerous.
Our mechanics are all busy; vacant
houses for rent are in demand. Quite q
number of Wichita parties are looking
this wav for homes; we welcome all
s,1ch and can offer inducements found
in few other towns, such as good graded
schools. churches, good pure well water,
healthy location: good society, clean,
well lighted. live town, where homes can
be procured cheap.
Wheat prospects were never better.
Farmers are improving this fine weather
in gathering their corn and preparing foT
winter.
Our Touring mills is now about COM
pIete and ready for business; the manaG-
ers, Messrs. Barkemyer & Eisiormeyerr,
are experienced millers and good busl-
ness men and will make as good houI
and kiln dried corn meal as can be pro
duced anywhere. The capacity OF the mil
is fifty barrels OF each per day. The mil
is fitted throughout with the latest I'M
proved machinery.

DING DONG.

A short time ago Rev Chas. j. Adams,
rector of ST. Johns church. Wichita.
delivered his lecture, entitled as above,
at Manhattan, Kan, and the Republic of
that place in commenting upon it. gave
the lecturer some rather hard though
good natured rubs as will be seen from
the following. which we are sure Iir.
Adams viii appreciate inasmuch as he
has keen relish for reparte. even if he
is made the victim of the thrusts. The
Republic said:
II was made evident that the lecturer
of last evening. Rev. Chas. J. Adams
was. as Mr.. Tunnel said. in introducing
him. an able man. This was shown in
his fine head and his noble countenanCe.

passing thought. before he commenced
TO speak. and when he rose. an eager eN-
pectancy of something unusually good
was visible in the audience. Whether he
fulfilled the promise he gave. each can
Judge for himself. He said many good
things. many fine, true things; the con-
stanI. ceaSeleSS. doing over and over was
one great secret of success and had aC-
compliS}ed wonders in the world. but
the attitude he took on the woman ques-
ton was sadly behind the times-the
same old ding dong of ''woman'S sphere.
and that women cannot fight that we
used 10 hear twenty years
ago. We could not help
thinking. what pity it was that a man
of such spendd abilities should thus
throw himself before the wheels of pro-
greSs. Whatever ones opinions. il does
not seem in good form to speak of
women who get up on the platform and
squat" Please leave that out of your
lecture next time. Mr.. Adams
The Who and the How and the When
and the Where Of Ding Dong was well
set forth: the men, in public ministers
in particularly, and the women, at home,
men with their might and acquired
knowledge III the pulpit and on the plat
form, women in curtain lectures. The
lecturer was listened to with interest and
attention throughout and his droll way

OUT THE EAGLE LINE.

One of the EAGLES staff had Oc-
casion to make a run out the Wichita G
Colorado railroad Tuesday as far as
Geneseo, the junction of three lines of
the Missouri Pacific system and crossing
of the Santa Fe road. Where the town
IS situated was an immense wheat field
twelve months ago. The place now
numbers in the neiChborhood Of eight

two hotels, fifteen or twenty stores. four
churches, a newspaper, and ether build

systems mentioned, with strong hopes Of

Missouri Pacific in the near future. the

GIVE THANKS TO-DAY.

The president of the United States and
the governors of the various states have
issued their proclamations reminding
the people of the custom that has pre-
vailed in this country for two hundred
and fffty-six years and in the old world
among Christian people for centuries.
From the day old Massasoit and hisninety
braves sat down to dinner with the long
faced Puritans and there together in their
rude way joined in Thanksgiving, the
custom has been enlarged upon until TO-
day it is observed throughout the land
and is a notable instance wherein by
common consent custom IS made as
binding as law because it is
hallowed by all the ties that bind US
10 the past and which reach on to the fu-
ture in universal expectation. In unison
with the subject and occasion we submit
some further observations which, while
familiar to some, viii be, we suspect,
new to many who shall read them:
When you will offer a sacrifice Of
THANKSGIVING unto the Lord, offer it at
your own wiIl.-Lev. 1913.
That [ may publish with the voice Of
thanksgiving and tell Of all thy wondrous
works.-PSalms 1851.
Offer unto God thanksgiving and pay
thy vows unto the most High.-Psalms
50:l4.
Let us come before His presence with
Thanksgiving and make joyous noise
with psalms-Psalms 95:2.
will praise the name Of God with q
song, and viii magnify Him with thanks
giving.-Psalms $3.50.
Enter into His gates with Thanksgiving
and into His courts with praise: be thank
ful unto Him and bless His name
Psalms 1904.
And let them sacrifice the sacrifices OF
Thanksgiving and declare His works with
eioicing-Psalms 1922.
Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving:
sing praise upon the harp unto Cod
Psalms 1871.
For the Lord shall comfort Zion: he
viii comfort all her waste places: and he
will make her wilderness ike
Eden and her desert ike the
garden of the Lord; joy and
gladness shall be found therein, thanks
giving and the voice Of melody. Is. dis.
And out of them shall proceed thanks
giving and the voice Of them that make
merry: and I will multiply them and
they shall not be few, | will also glOrify
them and they shall not be small. Jer.
30:19.
For all things are for your sakes, that
the abundant Grace might through the
thanksgiving OF many rebound to the
glory of God. H. Cor. 4:15.
Be careful for nothing: but il every
thing. by prayer and Supplication, with
thanksgiving let your requests be known
unto Cod. Phil, &c.
Saying amen: Blessing, and glory,
and honor. and power. and might, be
unto God forever and ever, Amen. Rev.
ZIP.
For the administration Of this not only
supplieth the wants Of the saints but IS
abundant also by many Thanksgiving
unto God.-II Cor. 9-12.
II is clearly shown by the foregoing
that it is meet for the people to rejoice
and give thanks, not with a depressed
spirit and sad heart, but with JOY and
gladness. having a care not to turn the
occasion into one of friyolity and intern
perate indulgence Of appetite. AND
above all amid the joyous observances oi
the gladstone occasion fail not TO ''re
member the poor whom ye have always

A sectional question of a somewhat
novel kind is raised by the Hon John A.
Kasson. Of Iowa, in an essay on The
Western View of the Tariff He main
tains that western communities. es-
ptcially the western farmers. have the
soundest economic reasons Of their own,
apart from the reasons Of eastern COM
munitieS for favoring the protective
principle, and that this principle has a
stronghold in the western mind, against
which eastern interests or doctrines can
not prevail. The essay appears as a con-
tribution to the December number of the

to newspapers that they printed long ac

piled by stating that if the papers printed

would come in with claim that he, too,
